Benefits of technology

The present invention provides a prepreg and carbon fiber reinforced composite material that has excellent impact resistance and conductivity simultaneously. This is achieved by containing a thermosetting resin and a conductive substance in the prepreg or composite material, which results in a high impact resistance and conductivity in the thickness direction. The prepreg can also contain a thermoplastic resin particle or fiber and a conductive particle or fiber to further improve the impact resistance and conductivity. The carbon fiber reinforced composite material can be used in various applications such as aircraft structural materials, windmill wing materials, and computer uses.

Problems solved by technology

Accordingly, there is a defect that the conductivity in thickness direction, among conductivities which are one of characteristics of the carbon fiber reinforced composite material, significantly decreases, and it was difficult to make an excellent impact resistance and conductivity compatible in the carbon fiber reinforced composite material.

[0217]By a kneader, 10 parts by weight of PES5003P was compounded and dissolved in 50 parts by weight of “Epikote (trademark)” 825 and 50 parts by weight of ELM434, and then 19.98 parts by weight of epoxy modified nylon particle A and 0.02 parts by weight of “Micropearl (trademark)” AU215 were kneaded, and furthermore, 40 parts by weight of 4,4′-diaminodiphenyl sulfone which is a hardener was kneaded, to prepare a thermosetting resin composition.

[0218]The prepared thermosetting resin composition was coated on a release paper by using a knife coater, to prepare 2 sheets of resin film of 52 g / m2. Next, on carbon fiber (T800S-24K-10E) arranged into a unidirectional sheet, 2 sheets of the resin film prepared in the above-mentioned were superposed on both sides of the carbon fiber, and impregnated with the resin by heat and pressure, to prepare a unidirectional prepreg of which carbon fiber areal weight was 190 g / m2 and weight ratio of matrix resin was 35.4%.

[0226]By a kneader, 10 parts by weight of PES5003P was compounded and dissolved in 50 parts by weight of “Epikote (trademark)” 825 and 50 parts by weight of ELM434, and then 40 parts by weight of 4,4′-diaminodiphenyl sulfone which is a hardener was kneaded, to prepare a thermosetting resin composition.

[0227]The prepared thermosetting resin composition was coated on a release paper by using a knife coater, to prepare 2 sheets of resin film of 45 g / m2. Next, on carbon fiber (T800S-24K-10E) arranged into a unidirectional sheet, 2 sheets of the resin film prepared in the above-mentioned were superposed on both sides of the carbon fiber, and impregnated with the resin by heat and pressure. Furthermore, on both sides thereof, TR-55 short fiber which is a thermoplastic resin fiber and “Torayca” milled fiber MLD-30 which is a conductive fiber were scattered. The scattered amounts were 6.5 g / m2 and 0.5 g / m2, respectively. In this way, a unidirectional prepreg of which carbon fiber areal weig...

Description

TECHNICAL FIELD[0001]The present invention relates to a prepreg and carbon fiber reinforced composite material having an excellent impact resistance and conductivity together.BACKGROUND ART[0002]Carbon fiber reinforced composite materials are useful since they are excellent in strength, stiffness, conductivity, etc., and widely used for an aircraft structural member, a windmill wing, an automotive outer panel and computer uses such as an IC tray or a housing of notebook computer and their needs are increasing year by year.[0003]The carbon fiber reinforced composite material is generally an inhomogeneous material obtained by molding a prepreg of which essential constituting elements are a carbon fiber which is a reinforcing fiber and a matrix resin, and accordingly, there is a big difference between physical properties of arranging direction of the reinforcing fiber and physical properties of other direction. For example, it is known that an impact resistance expressed by a resistanc...
